About This Game

Step into the shoes of John Blade, commander of HardCorps, an elite security force charged with defending Freeport City. It has been four years since your initial clash with Elexis Sinclaire, a stunning but merciless scientist bent on remaking mankind. With the law unable to stop Elexis and her multi-billion dollar enterprise, SiNTEK, Blade resolves to take justice into his own hands. Accompanying him are JC, a secretive hacker, and Jessica Cannon, a fiery rookie skilled in infiltrating secure facilities.

Immerse yourself in the vibrant, living world of Freeport City, a futuristic mix of New York, San Francisco, and Tokyo. As the city is plagued by mutant attacks, your goal is to dismantle Sinclaire's operations before she unleashes her catastrophic plan and changes humanity forever.
